      Dissociative Identity Disorder (split personalities) also seems to be an entirely American phenomenon.

      The idea that Dissociative Identity Disorder is unique to the USA, the west, or developed countries is outdated. People with DID are found at similar rates throughout the globe. However, the presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disorders is influenced by society and culture - one person's demonic possession is another's split personality.

      DID is definitely real and a pretty normal reaction to extreme childhood trauma. If it's more prevalent in the anglosphere it's because :lmayo:s are sexually terrorizing kids more frequently.

      Are you seriously implying Dissociative Identity Disorder isn't real to own the Anglos? Genuinely and sincerely go fuck yourself. :PIGPOOPBALLS: I can't believe im seeing something like this on this site its a like parody genuinely something I'd expect from a patsoc. Jesus christ.

      Edit: The fact that you also refered to it as "split personalitys" The levels of ableist brainworms on display.

      I think you need to expand that to at least western. It might be called something different outside of America as many other countries use different systems to classify conditions but split personalities occur outside of the US as well.
